That's often the point of using classes - you want to collect related data and functions in one place. In this case, you're creating a clock widget, so you want all of your clock data and methods inside your class. > When you mentioned time.localtime() method, did you mean that I should > convert the time to numbers and then write an if statement? > Like, say that I make 1 hour equivalent to the integear clock= 1.

As an aside, you've been top-posting, which can cause a lot of problems for people who want to follow the thread of the conversation - all they see is what you've written with no context. The appropriate thing to do is reply inline, removing any irrelevant material and (usually) indicating that you've done so with a <snip> or [...] or something similiar. HTH, Wayne
